About Shannon
Dr. Shannon Holliker offers a warm, attachment-informed approach to therapy. She uses Attachment-Based Therapy alongside client-centered methods to help people understand how relationships and early experiences shape current struggles.
Her style is direct and conversational, aimed at making conversations feel honest and useful. Dr. Holliker holds an LCSW and brings 12 years of clinical experience in Florida.
She helps people manage stress, anxiety, and parenting challenges. She also supports those coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, addictions, and relationship or family concerns.
Background and approach
Her practice includes work on trauma and abuse, ADHD, postpartum depression, and workplace or career stress. Her background includes a PhD in Public Affairs with a social work focus, a Master of Social Work, and a second master's in Child Development and Education.
Those degrees inform her work with parents and very young children, and with families affected by medical or developmental stress. The LCSW credential indicates clinical social work licensure in Florida. In sessions she mixes Attachment-Based Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness strategies.
She also uses motivational interviewing and narrative techniques when helpful. Sessions focus on clear goals, practical steps, and building awareness of patterns that affect daily life. Her approach is collaborative - she listens, asks clarifying questions, and helps set trackable goals.
People can expect to talk through current problems, practice new ways of responding, and celebrate small gains along the way.

Online support
Attachment and Practical Tools for Online Care
Dr. Holliker often combines Attachment-Based Therapy with client-centered work and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and helps people notice how those patterns show up now. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening deeply and building understanding from the person’s perspective. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy offers practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is useful for anxiety, panic, and stress.Choosing the right approach is part of the work and happens together. She will talk with the client about needs, goals, and what feels most useful. That collaborative process helps shape whether more attachment work, skill-based CBT, or mindfulness practices will be emphasized.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit daily life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for in-depth work. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be simpler to schedule. Live chat and messaging can work for brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or between-session follow-up. These options aim to increase flexibility so therapy can fit work, parenting, and other time demands.
